The best restaurants in North Ayrshire South West Scotland

I went for a meal with a group of friends as part of a Theatre package. The service was awful and we were late for the show. The attitude of the manager was not very professional when we put in a complaint infact bordered on being rude with no apology given at any time. I would not recommend this restaurant to any of my friends.

Just popped in for coffee and cake. Coffee was ok, but I'm afraid whoever supplies their cakes needs needs to get the basics right... like how to make a decent Scone ...dry and tasteless... and worse still... not fresh at all. Snowball was exactly the same. I've had this experience before at GGs with their cakes... all LOOK nice in the display cabinet, but I'm afraid it's all show. Better places to go. Won't be back.

Far too noisy for a good night out. Very average over priced food. Since when do you put Rocket in a prawn cocktail. Far too much rice on the chili chicken curry. If you are trying to be an upper crust venue, step up to the plate. Will not be recommending or returning.

Went here on our second night in Brodick, having been to sister restaurant Brambles the previous evening. Though really quite good, this wasn't as enjoyable as the first. Food was good, my chicken supreme on haggis mash was a revelation, though my wife's vegatarian linguine was fairly basic. The pear and bacon salad starters which we both had were really good. Service wasn't quite as slick as Brambles and the atmosphere wasn't as comfortable (we had a particularly noisy table of three close by), but it's still a pretty good place to eat!

We ate here Sunday 27/10/24 and we had a brilliant Sunday Lunch, the lamb and chicken supreme lunches were stunning, and great value at £22 each. We won't hesitate to return.

The photo’s here and the exterior of the place really don’t do Oscar’s justice. And they close much later than 1800hrs. We were passing through in need of something other than takeaway food. Seeing the number of people through the window we called in. Oscar’s is attached to a cinema complex and very modern inside. It has a broad menu from traditional ‘pub’ mains to premium burgers and a well stocked bar. We had a range of starters and mains and all were excellent. Staff were friendly and skilled. Also we consider the menu to be good value given the quality. Highly recommended.

Lovely bistro style restaurant with excellent food, and a terrific ambience. The night we were there they held a Halloween party which was lively. The bar and restaurant, although busy, did a terrific job.

Driver phoned me 2 say im at ur door, but it was not my address when it arrived it was cold and half off it hanging out the box, disappointed and was disguisting

Went in, and girls ran off their feet, and had a sausage supper, and a half standard/half special fish supper. Girls were lovely, and the food was outstanding. Best chippy in Largs by a mile. It's a bit chaotic, as all good traditional Italian chippys should be. Wouldn't go anywhere else. 5 star from us.

Drinks one visit, delicious meal the next. Besides the great food and service on our visits, I lost my glasses there and didn't realise until I got home. Not only did the Ormidale staff find my glasses, they also took the time to phone and let me know and post them to me. Above and beyond. We would highly recommend The Ormidale for its service, atmosphere, food and after care of careless customers! Thank you.

Firstly the restaurant is lovely and bright and well laid out. They menu has plenty on it and the lunch menu is a good deal. However that is where the good stops. We waited at the sign to be seated, staff were talking at the bar and after 10 minutes we just had to go up and ask to be seated. The menu is pricey and the bread that came with the prawn cocktail was stale. The buttermilk chicken that came with the salad was rock hard and not that warm. We ordered 2 sets of drinks and both times had to ask where they were. Finally, it's February and the doors were wide open so the place was freezing. There seemed to be plenty of staff but they are just lacking attentiveness and given the price I would expect better.

Such a shame how bad the food was at this place as the spa and the facilities are lovely! From reading the hundreds of bad reviews it seems the general consensus is that the food is terrible. We got the steak pie which had soggy pasty, chewy beef and watery tasteless gravy. We also had the buttermilk chicken which was overdone and inedible. It’s really a shame as this place has great potential. The food put a damper on what was a great day in the spa, very disappointed and dissatisfied! With the price of £20 for a pie you’d expect something decent but I’ve had better pies at the football! Service was also not the best.

Went to the pizza night last night for September Weekend absolutely great food was all fresh and amazing selection staff lovely helpful and friendly well done

Although busy, we got shown to a table very quickly. There was a mouth-watering display of cakes available, however the scones we opted for were by far the best we’ve tasted in a long time. I’d a superb pot of tea, and thanks to the skill of the dedicated barista, my husband enjoyed a fabulous flat white. A row of dedicated tip bowls ensured that our lovely server, Susan, was acknowledged for offering us the wonderful option of having our scones toasted; delicious! A nice old-fashioned end to our Largs visit.

Quick visit on a busy Thursday night. Staff are good and decor is nice. Good menu and kids menu. Wide selection of drinks. Margherita pizza was simple and tasty. Pasta alla Puttenesca was very good but a measly portion, could have done with same amount of spaghetti again. Very expensive garlic bread with cheese: five thin slices of ciabatta priced and £5.50?! Very poor. Also both pizza and pasta were hot but served on very cold plates. Could be better with a few small touches. Pints of Peroni well pulled and good value.
